Tourists from all parts of the globe visit India’s national capital city of Delhi to explore its world-famous monuments, shop at vibrant markets and taste the delectable cuisines of Delhi. Tourists planning a visit to the city, ask a common question, Is Delhi safe? The answer is yes and no both. Delhi does have a high crime rate scene compared to other parts of India and it accounts for approximately 40 per cent crime of in the country. However, there are as many opinions and experiences shared by the visitors as some of them believe that Delhi is not so unsafe city, and a crime against the tourist is relatively low with theft being the most common. They also believe that with some usual precautions and using common sense, one can travel the city with ease and avoid any misshapen. If you don’t have any ideas on how to explore Delhi, then you can go for our specially designed Delhi Tour Packages. How Safe is Delhi? There are a variety of opinions in response to the question of “how safe Delhi is for travellers.” It is a place that is halfway between safe and dangerous for tourists. Theft, snatching, domestic violence, eve-teasing, fraud, and molestation are the common crimes often seen in Delhi. Above all, it is also called the crime capital and sometimes the rape capital of India. However, murder and rape have been mostly committed on those who belong to the city. In many opinions, cities with high populations, more migrations, a cheap mindset towards women and inadequate police staffing create a threat to tourists. Many International travel authors say Delhi is not the only city that experiences this problem; many other cities also do. The safety of a tourist on their tour of Delhi is subject to the following conditions: How carefully you are travelling. How knowledgeable and aware you are about Delhi’s top alarming and brutal area. How late do you travel to Delhi at night? In which location do you have your accommodation? Which method of transportation do you select for your tour? How safe do you keep your belongings, especially on busy streets, bustling markets, railway stations, and bus stands? How easily do you trust strangers? Your dressing sense. Do you prefer to travel alone at late night? Is Delhi Safe for Women? Delhi in general is safe for female tourists as long as they keep a few preventive measures in mind. However, the answer may also vary based on individual experience and opinion but if you look at the overall perspectives, it is safe to an extent. If you are on a Delhi tour keep these safety tips till you stay there: 1. Stay in safe areas of Delhi and choose your accommodation wisely by doing research before entering the city. South Delhi or nearby locations are one of the posh and safer locations in comparison to other areas in Delhi. 2. Dress modestly. Home to the different cultures and traditional practices, the city has racked up both conservative and modern societies. Short dresses and sleeveless in rural markets may push you into a situation where people behold you. 3. At night do not hire a rickshaw or an auto for longer travel alone. Instead book a ride with Ola, Uber or Blue Smart. You can also book your ride through ‘Women with Wheel’ which has female drivers. 4. Take care of your precious goods like jewellery, cell and wallet at busy markets and in metros and look after them repeatedly. Is Delhi Safe for Western Couples? Delhi is not a scary or dangerous place to travel for Western couples rather it’s a matter of personal experience. People from Western countries come to travel to the capital city of India with their spouses or partners. Famous destinations like Red Fort, Humayun Tomb, Qutub Minar, and Akshardham are tourist hubs where foreigners and locals enjoy their visits to these monuments. But to prevent any unfortunate events or losses with you or your partner as there are scammers, thieves or wicked roaming in the city, you should be mindful of the following things: Do not mingle with anyone easily and ignore the unknowns. Don’t go to shady places in the evening and beyond. Avoid buses and autos at late night and travel in the metro instead of buses or hire a cab. Avoid exposing dresses. Do not trust scammers who claim to be travel agents or money exchangers. In case of any emergency, dial “112” to reach Delhi police. Don’t engage in short of a fight. For any important information also seek Google help. Download Hindi on your Google Translate. Don’t drink water anywhere, purchase a water bottle instead. Is Delhi Safe at Night? To summarize it in brief, Delhi is not safe to travel at late night, especially for women. Even a solo tourist regardless of gender may encounter issues like thieving, snatching or other types of harassment. The important thing here is that these awful incidents are not seen in every part of Delhi as there are some pointed-out destinations where such weak morals and wicked professionals lie. Places like South Delhi, Dwarka, Vasant Kunj, Saket, Greater Kailash, Rohini, and Mayur Vihar are even safe at night to roam or travel. Tourists who are looking for a party in clubs or bars or dine in a restaurant late at night should think about choosing a suitable mode of transportation. Additional Tips to Stay Safe in Delhi Being the heart of the vibrant nation and the capital city of India, Delhi is a popular tourist attraction across the globe.
